The day after Landon Donovan scored the deciding goal in the MLS All-Stars 2-1 victory over Bayern Munich, he announced that he will retire from professional soccer at the end of the season.

Donovan is perhaps the best American to ever step on the field in a red, white, and blue uniform. With 57 goals, no player has ever scored more for the United States. He’s also the all-time leading scorer in MLS with 138 goals.

Donovan revealed his decision in a Facebook post on Thursday. Donovan’s post reads as follows: “I don’t write these words lightly and this day carries mixed emotions for me, I am sad to leave a profession that has brought me so much joy. I will miss all of the teammates who helped me create so many incredible memories on-the-field, and who I have shared many wonderful experiences with off-the-field. I will miss my coaches, at both the club and national team levels, who have helped me develop throughout my career and helped make me the player I am today. However, after spending half my life as a professional soccer player, I also am excited to begin a new chapter and pursue other opportunities that will challenge me and allow me to grow as a person.”

Donovan added, “I feel incredibly blessed and lucky to have played a role in the remarkable growth of MLS and US Soccer during my playing career. And while my career as a player will soon be over, rest assured I will stay connected on many levels to the beautiful game."
